What is 67 times greater than 57?

67 times greater than 57 seems easy enough, but is it?

Let's assume the answer = 3819 (since 67 x 57 = 3819). Then shouldn't this statement be true?:

3819 is greater than 67 x 57.

But that is not true. 3819 is not greater than 67 x 57. It is the same!

To make it greater, we could make make a formula like (a+1)b where a=67 and b=57 to get this answer:

(67 + 1) x 57 = 3876

But if that is the case, why not simply say "What is 68 times 57?" instead of saying "times greater than?"

We do not think there is a correct answer, because the question can be misinterpreted.

It seems that when many people write 67 times greater than 57, they mean 67 times as much as 57 which equals 3819. We recommend that you ask them to clarify what they mean.
